Lifelong Learning

Preschool
AL Gaglaim/ Training Wheels, our family education program, held nine times per year, is geared to families with children 2 to 5 years.

The curriculum focuses on Jewish holiday celebrations through crafts, music, stories, and food. We welcome all families regardless of levels of knowledge or observance.

Religious School

Our Religious School meets on Sunday mornings where the students learn Hebrew and Judaic studies. In addition, grades 5-7 meet midweek.

Confirmation Academy for grades 8 and 9 offers weekly exploration of theology, Jewish history and ethics.

Our 10th to 12th grades meet for monthly discussion of current issues.

The school is under the direction of the rabbi, the principal, and an Education Committee. Our teachers are all volunteers.

TBJ Playgroup

Come play with us! The TBJ playgroup, for kids through age 5 and their parents, will meet at TBJ on Wednesday, April 4 at 3:30 p.m. If the weather is spectacular, we may move to Rollins Park; in this event, a note will be posted on TBJ’s door.

Please come join in the fun (and conversation for the adults)! If you have any questions, contact Tracy Hahn-Burkett at 224-8091 or tracyrhb@comcast.net.

Thoughts on Friendship

By Jodi Roos’ 4th Grade Judaica Class
(During class we talked about friendship and the qualities we value in friends. We discussed selfishness versus selflessness. The kids paired off and had about ten minutes to write their poems. - Jodi Roos)

Friendship Feelings by Jacob Gibney and Tim Peterson
A friend can be good.
A friend can be bad.
A friend can also be very sad.
These are the feelings that I know,
I wait for my friends if they are slow.

By Sydney Bator and Joe Ossoff
F Forever
R Real
I Imaginary
E Everlasting
N Nice
D Dependable
S Selflessness

By Jed Sky and Evan Ruderman
Friendship is a great thing.
Everyone should have a friend.
They’re always there for you and me.
Friendship should never end.
When you’re down in the great blue sea,
Friendship will save you.
A great friend will never leave
And they’ll make you believe
In yourself
Two friends are better than one,
The more you have, the greater
The fun.

We dedicate this to our really cool friends By Harry Gross and Ben Heifetz
F Fun
R Rejoice together
I I like you, a friend would say
E Enjoyable to be with
N Never lets you down
D Does nice things
A circle is round
It has no end,
That is how long
I want to be your friend.
